Computer scientist Lance Fortnow writes that by embracing the computations that surround us, we can begin to understand and tame our seemingly random world. Bohr: Algebra is like sheet music. The ...

Consider a patient with abdominal pain or fever of unknown origin. The presentation may not scream catastrophe. The vital signs are not yet extreme and the laboratory data are incomplete. The ...

Computation is playing an increasing role in all STEM fields, and the ability for students to use and understand various computational tools is vital to long term success. It is not a question of if ...

The wisdom of the crowd has become so powerful and so accessible via the Internet that it has become a resource in its own right. Various services now tap into this rich supply of human cognition, ...

The Church-Turing limit restricts all current computation, including quantum computers, to rational number computation. This is because quantum computer designs (still not scalable even with high ...

This course gives an introduction to the mathematical foundations of computation. The course will look at Turing machines, universal computation, the Church-Turing thesis, the halting problem and ...

A new paper written by a theoretical physicist at Howard University claims that aneural eukaryotic cells could process information up to a billion times faster than typical biochemical processes. This ...

Rapid technological change almost always invites rapid financial innovation. As new forms of production emerge, markets rush to name them, package them, and – inevitably – securitize them. Familiar ...

The Computation in Architecture at the Royal Danish Academy examines contemporary modelling and fabrication within architecture, whilst questioning the role of the architect amid the climate crisis.
